    Please check with Mani Varadarajan (mani@esd.sgi.com) about kgdb.
He has used it with the DMS Moosehead system simulator, although in
that case the simulator acts as the target system monitor, instead of
having a program resident in memory with the kernel.  I don't know if
he had to fix anything for the MIPS architecture; if he did, that
might save you some startup time.
